Great. I'll carry that gallon with me on all rides lol

Same. I don't have problems with the non tubeless ready tires. The tubeless ready tires. I can't get the last bit over the rim

At the risk of sounding repetitive .....I simply did not have the hand strength to muscle it on.

Some are missing the point. I had zero problems removing and reinstalling the Pathfinder Sport tires on my bike. Now I have Panaracer GravelKing slicks and I cannot get that tire back on the rim after removal...not when brand new....and not after 2000 miles of riding. So If I have a flat...

Thank you. I guess I have weak hands. I had to go to the LBS again

Here is the real question. When I got these Panaracer Gravel King Slicks about 2,000 miles ago....I could NOT get them on the rim and had to take it to my LBS for assist. After the time/miles will those same tires be easier to remove/install?....or should I just drop off the bike?

Flat out inside the tubes?

I've considered it. The salt isn't worth the rub for me. 1 flat in 2500 miles I say!!!....no messes...no rituals. I'd say that I was doing just fine without a tubeless setup.

2,480 miles on my Vado SL and today I had my first flat. We had a storm last night...I left the house and all looked fine. I crossed the street to find a LOT of storm debris in the streets. I didn't think too much about it....then caught a flat some miles from my house. It was not a good...

As far as audible alerts: On my Vado 4.0 I rely on the TCU for chirps and it is typically adequate. On my Vado SL which is a non-Mastermind equipped bike I use the Garmin Varia phone application. When riding the SL and using my phone app for the Varia I use my Shokz headphones connected to my...

Hopefully minimal. 99.9% of the time for me a notification indicates an upcoming vehicle.

I know...old thread but... Man this Garmin Varia has been FANTASTIC. The only 'false alarms' (if you even consider this to be a false alarm) is when the Varia picks up cross-traffic/perpendicular traffic after crossing through a street...and I don't find this to be an irritant whatsoever. The...

You kind sir are a goddamn genius! Now if only you did a step-by-step Youtube video which instructed all of us lemmings how to accomplish this bit of electrical engineering.....then I would award you with a medal!

I like my gravel king slicks for exclusively street riding. I'd buy them again. I switched from Pathfinder Sports and am never looking back.

One for me.

Based on the posts here...I am not going to watch the video.

I do...an SL.... and often without motor power like you. My needs/rides/miles per week negate a reason to own an extended battery. I was just surprised that another rider that uses motor sparingly with an SL carries that (and seemingly unnecessary in your case) extra weight.

Wow!! That is a lot of technical research you've done! It is a shame that Specialized didn't simply allow an on/off light function within the app for this bike.

Why did you ride for 3 hours without the motor but still carry your extender battery?
